The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 332: Far from the Temple
Jiang Cheng also spread the word that everyone in the city, regardless of gender, age or whether they were native to Kuanchengzi, could go to the hospital for medical treatment as long as they were willing to lay down their weapons and obey management.

In addition, on the day when the troops entered Kuanchengzi to accept the surrender of Gao Shibin's troops and began to maintain order, Yang Yucheng, who was in charge of the logistics work, mobilized the grain and fodder near Liufangzi for transportation.

Jiang Cheng ordered that all warehouses in the five districts of Kuanchengzi be opened to release grain, except for the Japanese-controlled areas.
Two porridge factories were set up at the South Gate and the East Gate respectively; following the ancient practice, no sand was allowed to be added to the porridge, and chopsticks could not fall over when standing upright.

However, even though order was carefully maintained, there was still some chaos in the city.

After all, in this chaotic world, there are still many people who want to take advantage of the situation.

Jiang Cheng ordered Hai Pingchuan to form a joint defense team with the soldiers who surrendered in the city, and let these people who were familiar with the area patrol.

Those criminals who deliberately created chaos and robbed and looted ordinary people were all taken to Caishikou and shot once they were caught.

Three days later, the entire Kuanchengzi returned to its pre-war tranquility.

As Gao Shibin and other rebel leaders were taken to Fengtian, Marshal Zhang's commendation order also arrived.

In recognition of his meritorious service in suppressing the rebellion, Jiang Cheng was ordered to temporarily take over the government of Kuanchengzi and was allowed to incorporate the nearby Jilin Army into the 29th Division.

Almost on the same day, Wu Junsheng broke through Jilin Prefecture, and General Meng Enyuan led the remnants of his troops to break through to the interior.

On the day when the Marshal ordered Zhang Zuoxiang to be promoted to the governor of Jilin, Jiang Cheng received a call from Yang Yuting from inside the country.

Almost half a year had passed since he was demoted and fled to the capital.

"Jiang Feilan, I...thank you very much."

This is the opening sentence. Jiang Cheng was stunned:
What are you thanking me for?

Could it be that this resourceful and sinister former Chief of the General Staff knew the whole story of Zhang Ming?
Being sarcastic?

Jiang Cheng's eyes were getting gloomy, but he heard Yang Yuting's calm voice on the other end of the phone: "You asked Miss Zhang to arrange it, right? The house is nice, and the food and supplies are quite complete..."

"Haha, but I didn't expect that in this situation where everyone is pushing down on you, Jiang Feilan, didn't take advantage of the situation, and you are actually the only one who helps me."

Jiang Cheng was a little confused.

Since he took office in Siping, he has been so busy that he has no time to greet his three wives, so how can he think about his old boss?
It should be one of his wives. It is probably the result of discussion between Hai Huixin and Zhang Tingxue.

One of these two women is a housekeeper, and the other has her own power in both the capital and Tianjin;
A whole house and some money to arrange things may not be a big deal for his wealthy family at this time...but for Yang Yuting who is in a low period, it is purely a timely help.

He smiled and replied, "Well, you're welcome... After all, we are colleagues in the Fengtian Army. How can Feilan just sit there and do nothing?"

At this point, Jiang Cheng's smile deepened, and he added in a joking tone, "Besides, you, the little Zhuge, are very capable, and your reputation is still in my heart. You might return home in glory one day."

"We still need your support."

Yang Yuting was silent for a full half minute, but he soon chuckled: "I have already thanked you. Fei Lan,"

"You have always been a straightforward person. If you want me to do something or want to know something, just tell me clearly."

In fact, when Jiang Cheng finished saying these words, Yang Yuting was in a trance for a few seconds.

Can I...return to the Fengtian Army?
Yang Yuting is not a time traveler, but Jiang Cheng is.

I was so busy in Siping every day that I really forgot to take care of General Staff Yang who would be back soon.

But Jiang Cheng knew clearly that before the Zhi-Feng War broke out, the Marshal still brought him back to help him manage the Fengtian Army;
Yang Yuting also made great contributions to the later construction of arsenals and other projects.

"What you said, if I, Jiang Cheng, didn't need you, wouldn't you lend a hand to help me?"

Jiang Cheng smiled again, "You have been working hard in the Fengtian Army for a long time, why not give yourself a long vacation——"

Yang Yuting's slightly low laugh interrupted him.

"You are not even 29 years old yet, and you are already acting as the th Division... Next, you should be in charge of Jilin, right?"

"Haha, it's true that heroes emerge young, and the future is promising!" After saying this with a bit of jealousy, he took a deep breath and then suddenly said, "Under the lobbying of his son Meng Botao, the capital has ordered the recall of Meng Enyuan."

Jiang Cheng's expression grew more gloomy.

When taking the entrance exam for the Military Academy, Meng Botao offended them repeatedly and almost ruined Xiao Zhang's life.

If it weren't for the old man Meng, who was the governor of Jilin at that time, protecting him, I'm afraid he would have died long ago...

I heard that he was imprisoned in Fengtian for half a month, so Meng Enyuan sent him to the Baoding Military Academy.

Since his father was defeated in Jilin, of course he had to go to Beijing to coordinate.

Jiang Cheng sneered a few times: "Interesting."

Yang Yuting knew that Jiang Cheng had understood the subtext, but he continued to make his words more clear: "From the looks of it, Feng Huafu is planning to use this old man and his son as the capital's guards."

"Feilan, this is not good news."

Because Xu Shuzheng repeatedly embezzled the military funds of the Fengtian Army and transferred Jin Chun to the Hunan battlefield to die, the Marshal had gradually shifted his support from the Anhui faction to Cao Kun's Zhili faction.

But Feng Huafu and Cao Kun are clearly not completely of the same mind; the old man is trying every means to save the Meng family, but besides increasing his own strength, isn't this also laying the seeds of disaster for their Fengtian Army?

The old man was beaten so badly that he lost Jilin; Meng Botao even became enemies with them when he was taking the entrance exam for the Military Academy...

If there is any change between Zhili and Feng in the future, the father and son will most likely bite them to death.

"I really admire you, Chief of Staff Yang."

Jiang Cheng deliberately didn't respond to his words, but instead praised him, "You are far away from the government, but you can still understand and control the situation - you are worthy of being the chief of the general staff."

Yang Yuting laughed a few times because of his words.

But whether this laughter was a mixture of pride... yin and yang or something else, Jiang Cheng found it difficult to tell.

"So, Brother Feilan, are you going to let me try?"

The other party's tone suddenly froze into ice.

Jiang Cheng said nothing.

After a long while, he lowered his eyebrows and chuckled twice: "Is Lin Ge waiting for my promise?"

"If we can get rid of this evil, Master Shuai... will naturally be very happy."

They both laughed out loud into the phone.

"I understand."

Yang Yuting whispered and immediately hung up the phone.

Does the damn old man and Feng Huafu still want to keep a backup plan?

Now that you're already a drowned dog, don't blame everyone for beating you up.

Jiang Cheng held the receiver and thought to himself, then passed the message to his father.

The government affairs in Rehe were certainly busy, but during the Republic of China he could only discuss these important matters with his relatives.

After Jiang Lanxuan agreed with his son's decision, he talked to him about the situation in Fengtian.

"I'm afraid Germany can't hold on any longer. The Russians in the north have also changed sides... Feilan, you and the assistant ministers will govern Jilin, and be very careful of the Japanese."
